Eighth District Items.

Mount Calvery NJ. E. Church, in this
district, Rev. Mr.. Grubb, pastor. held a
very successful and pleasing festival In
the grove on Wednesday last, which was
largely attended by those In the neigh
borhood In addition TO the festival, which
included ice cream, lemonade and other
refreshments in abundance, there was al
so a musical and literary entertainment,
which added very much 10 the enjoyment
of the affair A neat sum was realized TO
the church from the festival and enter
tainment. DIR. Leondus Sheppard, the
prime mover of this part Of the exercises
deserves much credit for his untiring Ell
forts TO give the community such musl.
cal and literary treat, and ii is hoped that
another may soon follow.
The weather has been extremely warm
for the past few days, but politicians are
equally as warm, and the political eaul-
dron is kept bubling all the time. II is
first one faction and then the other thai
hold weekly meetings-an our people are
kept in continual political fever. We
hope after the primaries are over Things
will settle down little and our people
be ONE more interested in the matters OF
the farm.
Corn is looking well and promises a
good yield. Fruits of all kind will be
short in this section. No apples no peaches
and but few pears worth speaking OF.
The grape crop which ..also promised an
abundant yield, have begun to fall rapid
ly and will be very short. The tobacco
crop is also poor for this season. The
wheat harvest has fallen very short of ex
pectasions and in some instances not more
than a half of crop will be made. The
| outlook, as general thing, is not very
promising for the farmer. ID.

Hard Drinking IN High Society.


The hard drinking that is indulged in in
high society must be something quite
huge / have not been to the opera this
season without finding the boxes dotted
with young men whose condition ran the
gamut from babhling fOOlishness to stupid
sleepiness The lobby, between the acts,
would be full of them, zigzagging to and
from "the cooler" as they facetiOusly
term the barrOOm. The contingent that
society sends to the big balls is by far the
most riotOus that you can find there, and
hear of number Of scandalOus exhibitions
Of inebriety at private balls and parties.
On one occasion, especially, two prOmi
nent youngsters, who reeled into n ball at
DelmonicO's, were elected by the floor
committee. On another n dinner party at
a dude club resulted sadly to the marring
Of the walls Of the dining room by the
cdibles, which the merry rOysterers con-
vcrted into missiles in the eXuberance Of
their vinOus humOr.
Nor is it the sterner sex alone that
claims the attention Of the Blue Ribbon
league. The number of society women
who look upon the champagne when it
bubbles is apparently ON tho increase.
There is babble after every entertainment
Of Miss KS or Mrs, Y's open devotion to
the cup, and stories are rife at the clubs
Of the indiscretiOns into which their appc-
tites betray certain bellies in the charmed
circle Of upper tendon. There is an ex-
traOrdinary amount Of drinking done at
the places popular for ladies' lunches, and
most Of the swell milliners, am assured
provide literally against the thirst of their
patrons.-Alfred Tumble in New York
News

The Rarroom Dog.

The barroom dog that drinks beer IS

foundland dog that belonged 90 barroom
and drank beer and spirits with any one
who treated IT, Il was a sad dog, as |
remember H. It's eyes were bilious, ana
Il had listless gait ana a depressed air.
Disslpation had evidently told upon 1t.
Since that time have got to know dogs
large. small and medium, all Of which are
addicted to their pots, and l enjoy the
honor OF acquaintanceship wish bowery
goat that Wal, its owner assures me, drink
a key Of beer IL any one viii find the keg.
When goat falls into ways Of dissipation
am told, IL becomes more completely ano
hopelessly abandoned than any am nmaa

myself seen am inclined to believe that
this Is the fact.-Alfred Trumble IN New

Cbine.e Theatre Orchestra.

The orchestra is usually composed of
seven musicians, who sit at the back Of
the stage and play without much inter
mission from the beginning to the end Of
the performance The leading instru-
ments arc the fiddle, the cymbals, the
gong and the drum. The fiddle tyran-
nizes over the rest Of the music, and rises
superior even to the clash Of the cymbals.
Il has only single string, and the notes
evolved from It pierce the ear like knife.
The man that performs upon the fiddle
alternates with the cymbals, while his
next neighbor beats, in rhythmical meas
ure, on a huge brazen gong, which Is
pendent from the ceiling. The other per
Formers play upon drums, one Of metal
and the other Of polished wood. The
music Is said to bear striking resem-
blance 10 that Of the Egyptians. 1t is all
IN the minor key, and from distance it
has weird and melancholy sound. Heard
near at hand, however, n has tendency
to produce headache and to rasp the
neryes.-George II. Fitch in The Cosmo-
uOlitau.
